Be Change LLC to Relaunch XPCamper V1 in March

Congratulation, will be interesting to see what the total price of the V1 on the F-350 will be. Agree with the switch to a gasoline truck as the way to go...
 
Our custom-ordered F350 arrived today. We have exciting plans for it. Really digging the Velocity Blue exterior and Camel interior!

Ford did a great job on this for us - from order to delivery it was just over 7 weeks.

Looks nice. Just wondered why you didn't order a chassis cab instead of the pickup. Seems like it would have been a bit less expensive.

Ford doesn't offer all of the options on the chassis cabs, and some of the options we wanted were not available unless we went with a complete truck. If you can build a chassis cab and it has the options you want, sure that could make sense.
 
New article on the homepage.
I'd prefer the company's history wasn't completely ignored.

Nimbl doesn't hide the connection to XPCamper.
I respect that decision, and I wish them well.

I might be mis-remembering, but I thought the chassis-cab model had a open C rear frame while the one with a bed is fully boxed and much stiffer. I'd want the boxed frame for an overland camper platform, and it would make mounting easier; no need for a pivoting subframe.

I'm pretty sure that all of the SuperDuty frames are boxed under the cab and C under the cargo space like this (couldn't find 2020 data this is 2107 but I don't think it has changed) -

I think that is the cab-chassis frame. Note the flat rails and consistent width. This is the regular version:
